Sorry dude,
But it didn't work out that well.
it got an error Icon at the bottom of the browser and did not do anything!
I was wondering if somthing like this would work (it did not work but could you help me correct it?)
function save(){
document.cookie = document.myForm.mono.value
retrive()
}
function retrive(){
document.getcookie = document.myForm.mono.value
}
:)

I was interested by this posting, and I tried the below (modified and completed) code. Normally, when clicking on the "Register" button the name entered should be saved in the cookie "textbox" and then, because of history.go(0) it would re-run again, displaying the registered name and date. But it doesn't work. What is missing in this code?
Thanks!

a chat program made with javascript is that possible? :eek:
Teen Programmer

I am not sure!
But i am almost sure it will work!
I need to save what has been writen to the text area
so when you chat every thing that has been posted will
be there!
I probably dont make sense!
sorry if you cant usnderstand! :D
but i am sure it will work!
:D :) :D

well no sry i might be wrong but if you want to save everything that been said in the textarea, then yes you need to get cookies, but how do you propose getting messages from one chatter to another and displayed in the textarea?

No, a chat program with JavaScript is not possible. Sorry. It will require some sort of server-side language, and would best be done in Java.
Teen Programmer

You would need to save the textarea to a cookie.
and then retrive it on clicking the send!
you can retrive cookies cant you? :D :o

You can try all you want, but how are you going to save the information to a file, and how are you going to read from that file so other users can view what you have typed? Good luck - you're going to need it...
